NORTHBROOK, Ill., April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Allstate Corporation (NYSE:ALL) today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2026.

"Allstate's strategy and execution capabilities generated strong earnings and increased growth in the first quarter," said Tom Wilson, who leads The Allstate Corporation. "Revenues were $16.9 billion and net income was $2.4 billion. Policies in force reached 212 million, reflecting increased growth in auto and homeowners insurance and Protection Plans. The Property-Liability combined ratio was strong, and the underlying combined ratio* improved in all personal lines products and brands. Investment income increased by 9.8%, reflecting portfolio growth and higher fixed income yields. Adjusted net income* was $2.8 billion, or $10.65 per diluted common share."

"The broad set of competitive tools created through Transformative Growth is driving strong performance," continued Wilson. "Market share of auto and homeowners insurance increased in many states due to a comprehensive approach of more affordable prices, new products, expanded benefits, bundled offerings, lower expenses, sophisticated analytics and increased marketing. This positioned Allstate and independent agents and direct distribution to capture a record amount of new business in the quarter. Retention losses were slightly lower reflecting last year's focus on improving customer experience. Protection offerings were also broadened with Protection Services policies increasing over the prior year. Shareholders benefited from strong earnings, higher dividends and increased share repurchases," concluded Wilson.

The recorded auto insurance combined ratio of 81.9 in the first quarter of 2026 was a 9.4 point improvement from the prior year quarter, due primarily to the benefit of prior year reserve releases. Prior year reserve liabilities were lowered by $838 million as estimated claims costs for 2023 through 2025 were reduced, improving the current quarter combined ratio by 8.8 points.
The underlying auto insurance combined ratio* of 89.5 in the first quarter of 2026 was a 1.7 point improvement from the prior year quarter, reflecting improvements in the underlying loss and expense ratios.
Auto insurance policies in force grew by 2.6% with a 9.4% increase in new business, reflecting expanded distribution, increased marketing, new products and sophisticated rating plans. Active brand auto insurance policies grew by 3.5%, which was partially offset by decreases in legacy Esurance and Encompass policies.
Allstate Protection homeowners insurance remains a competitive advantage for Allstate. Underwriting profit of $685 million increased from a loss of $451 million in the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting 2025's California wildfire losses.

Market-based investment income was $791 million in the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $72 million, or 10.0%, compared to the prior year quarter, reflecting growth in the asset balances to $75.2 billion in the market-based portfolio.
Performance-based investment income totaled $207 million in the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $11 million compared to the prior year quarter with higher private equity and real estate income. The overall portfolio allocation to performance-based assets provides a diversifying source of attractive long-term returns; quarterly volatility in reported results is expected.
Net losses on investments and derivatives were $405 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to losses of $349 million in the prior year quarter. First quarter results primarily reflected valuation declines on public equity securities in March, which have since recovered.
Unrealized net capital losses totaled $282 million (pre-tax), a $664 million decrease to the prior quarter end as higher interest rates and wider credit spreads resulted in lower fixed income valuations.
Total return on the investment portfolio was negative 0.2% for the first quarter. Total return for the trailing twelve months was 4.2%.

Proactive Capital Management

"Allstate's active capital management continues to create shareholder value," said John Dugenske, Interim Chief Financial Officer and President, Investments and Corporate Strategy. "Operating results generated an adjusted net income return on equity* of 44.4% over the last year. Increased capital was deployed to investment opportunities, and $881 million of cash was provided to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases," concluded Dugenske.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

We believe that investors' understanding of Allstate's performance is enhanced by our disclosure of the following non-GAAP measures. Our methods for calculating these measures may differ from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.

Adjusted net income (loss) is net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, excluding:

Net gains and losses on investments and derivatives
Pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses
Amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles
Gain or loss on disposition
Adjustments for other significant non-recurring, infrequent or unusual items, when (a) the nature of the charge or gain is such that it is reasonably unlikely to recur within two years, or (b) there has been no similar charge or gain within the prior two years
Related income tax expense or benefit of these items

Net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders is the GAAP measure that is most directly comparable to adjusted net income.

We use adjusted net income as an important measure to evaluate our results of operations. We believe that the measure provides investors with a valuable measure of the Company's ongoing performance because it reveals trends in our insurance and financial services business that may be obscured by the net effect of net gains and losses on investments and derivatives, pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses, amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles, gain or loss on disposition and adjustments for other significant non-recurring, infrequent or unusual items and the related tax expense or benefit of these items. Net gains and losses on investments and derivatives, and pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by business decisions and external economic developments such as capital market conditions, the timing of which is unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Gain or loss on disposition is excluded because it is non-recurring in nature and the amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles is excluded because it relates to the acquisition purchase price and is not indicative of our underlying business results or trends. Non-recurring items are excluded because, by their nature, they are not indicative of our business or economic trends. Accordingly, adjusted net income excludes the effect of items that tend to be highly variable from period to period and highlights the results from ongoing operations and the underlying profitability of our business. A byproduct of excluding these items to determine adjusted net income is the transparency and understanding of their significance to net income variability and profitability while recognizing these or similar items may recur in subsequent periods. Adjusted net income is used by management along with the other components of net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders to assess our performance. We use adjusted measures of adjusted net income in incentive compensation. Therefore, we believe it is useful for investors to evaluate net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, adjusted net income and their components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing and evaluating our performance. We note that investors, financial analysts, financial and business media organizations and rating agencies utilize adjusted net income results in their evaluation of our and our industry's financial performance and in their investment decisions, recommendations and communications as it represents a reliable, representative and consistent measurement of the industry and the Company and management's performance. We note that the price to earnings multiple commonly used by insurance investors as a forward-looking valuation technique uses adjusted net income as the denominator. Adjusted net income should not be considered a substitute for net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.

The following tables reconcile net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and adjusted net income (loss). Taxes on adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and adjusted net income (loss) generally use a 21% effective tax rate.

Adjusted net income *	$ 2,797	$ 949	$ 10.65	$ 3.53

Adjusted net income (loss) return on Allstate common shareholders' equity is a ratio that uses a non-GAAP measure. It is calculated by dividing the rolling 12-month adjusted net income by the average of Allstate common shareholders' equity at the beginning and at the end of the 12-months, after excluding the effect of unrealized net capital gains and losses. Return on Allstate common shareholders' equity is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. We use adjusted net income as the numerator for the same reasons we use adjusted net income, as discussed previously. We use average Allstate common shareholders' equity excluding the effect of unrealized net capital gains and losses for the denominator as a representation of common shareholders' equity primarily applicable to Allstate's earned and realized business operations because it eliminates the effect of items that are unrealized and vary significantly between periods due to external economic developments such as capital market conditions like changes in interest rates, the amount and timing of which are unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. We use it to supplement our evaluation of net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and return on Allstate common shareholders' equity because it excludes the effect of items that tend to be highly variable from period to period. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and that it provides a valuable tool for investors when considered along with return on Allstate common shareholders' equity because it eliminates the after-tax effects of realized and unrealized net capital gains and losses that can fluctuate significantly from period to period and that are driven by economic developments, the magnitude and timing of which are generally not influenced by management. In addition, it eliminates non-recurring items that are not indicative of our ongoing business or economic trends. A byproduct of excluding the items noted above to determine adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity from return on Allstate common shareholders' equity is the transparency and understanding of their significance to return on common shareholders' equity variability and profitability while recognizing these or similar items may recur in subsequent periods. We use adjusted measures of adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity in incentive compensation. Therefore, we believe it is useful for investors to have adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity and return on Allstate common shareholders' equity when evaluating our performance. We note that investors, financial analysts, financial and business media organizations and rating agencies utilize adjusted net income return on common shareholders' equity results in their evaluation of our and our industry's financial performance and in their investment decisions, recommendations and communications as it represents a reliable, representative and consistent measurement of the industry and the company and management's utilization of capital. We also provide it to facilitate a comparison to our long-term adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity goal. Adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity should not be considered a substitute for return on Allstate common shareholders' equity and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.

Combined ratio excluding the effect of catastrophes, prior year reserve reestimates and amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles ("underlying combined ratio") is a non-GAAP ratio, which is computed as the difference between four GAAP operating ratios: the combined ratio, the effect of catastrophes on the combined ratio, the effect of prior year reserve reestimates, excluding catastrophes on the combined ratio, and the effect of amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles on the combined ratio. We believe that this ratio is useful to investors, and it is used by management to reveal the trends in our Property-Liability business that may be obscured by catastrophe losses, prior year reserve reestimates and amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles. Catastrophe losses cause our loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their incidence of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a significant impact on the combined ratio. Prior year reserve reestimates are caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves, which could increase or decrease current year net income. Amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles relates to the acquisition purchase price and is not indicative of our underlying insurance business results or trends. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our underwriting performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the combined ratio. The underlying combined ratio should not be considered a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall underwriting profitability of our business.

The following tables reconcile the respective combined ratio to the underlying combined ratio. Underwriting margin is calculated as 100% minus the combined ratio.
